=== Types of Runnables ===
The scope of the permissions model is limited to Open Web Apps, which are applications written web technologies (HTML, JS, CSS).
These are the only applications which are installed on B2G, "the web is the platform", there are no user-installable native apps.
There are multiple layers of applications underneath these web apps, which make up the B2G OS, but these are beyond the scope of the permissions model. It is noted however that the permissions model might influence the design of lower layers: for example, ideally Web Apps of differing permission levels would be sandboxed to limit the impact of memory corruption vulnerabilities. For further detail on the underlying B2G architecture see: [[B2G/Architecture]]
